Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

PhilippinesThere are cockroaches and insects everywhere. The place is way too different from what’s in their photos. When we arrived there are dust everywhere. Too many charges. Aside from your booking fee they chrarge additional 150 per person and asked for a 300 deposit which they did not gave back. The customer service asked me for a Gcash number for refund, I told them I do not have a Gcash account and told them I only have Maya and 2 different banks and they never replied after that. What a scam.
Just the location coz it’s near the mall.

PhilippinesThe first room that was given to me was so dusty with broken chair. There were only 2 (one is broken) dinning chairs for a dusty glass dinning table. The second room (I requested to be transferred to another room) has cockcroaches crawling on the walls, the exhaust fan in the bathroom (which has a broken door knob) was so squeeky, the kitchen exhaust fan was not working, dusty windows and floor, there are hidden charges that was not indicated in the postings amounting to Php150 per head for adults and Php75 for kids. (for every night of stay) and a bond amounting to Php300 (refundable if you will leave the room free from trash and organized, if not, they won't refund your 300) I recieved the refund after 2 days.. Oh, I almost forgot. The blankets provided were like 1x2 m., the the towels were so thin (as thin as the good morning towel) that when you dry your hair it will be all soaked with water. The plastic chairs are broken. No provision of tissue paper, soaps and toiletries.
I liked the ac. It cooled the entire room. The staff was respectful and responsive (in fairness) The fridge was very functional.

PhilippinesThe screws on the door handles are loose. Door handles were moving. There were free stuff such as handsoap etc but they were 1/4 filled like leftovers. There was a defective fan. The working fan was so weak. In the first unit there was no exhaust. The second unit had an exhaust but the same was not working. Floor drain caps were moving. This can cause slippage and accidents.

United StatesTHIS CONDO IS THE WORST UNIT OUR FAMILY HAS EVER BEEN. IT IS COCKROACH INFESTED, UNSANITARY, AND SHOULD NOT BE RENTED OUT. Even after spraying 3 cans of insecticide, cockroaches keep on appearing everywhere. WE FELT THAT WE MIGHT BE WAKING UP WITH COCKROACHES CRAWLING ON US, SO WE BOOKED AND TRANSFERRED TO A HOTEL NEARBY AT "10 PM" BECAUSE WE CAN'T STAND THE WORST CONDITION. WE TRIED TO CANCEL AND REFUND THE MONEY BUT THE HOST SAID THAT IT WAS NOT REFUNDABLE. We were also CHARGED ADDITIONAL UTILITY FEES PER DAY PER PERSON which was not specified during the booking and the host just texted us about it, a few hours before our arrival. WE DISPUTED THE UTILITY CHARGES & the amount was reduced., BUT WE STILL NEEDED TO PAY IT. OUR FAMILY DECIDED NOT TO USE THE UNIT AND WE JUST STAYED IN THE HOTEL, NEARBY FOR THE WHOLE DURATION OF OUR VACATION. THE PICTURES POSTED IN THEIR ADVERTISEMENT, ARE THE EXTREME OPPOSITE OF THE CONDITION OF THE UNIT.
The ONLY thing good with this property is the location because it's just across a Mall. Other than the location, NOTHING ELSE TO LIKE!

PhilippinesThe room assigned to us was ok but turned out to have a deffective AC. We needed to transfer and it took us a day to find a new room for us. Then the new room we transferred into was bigger but looks like a storage room where their staff are staying in and where they put their broken chairs, cabinets and electric fans. There were used soaps in the toilet and half filled rice cooker. The fridge has thick ice that you cannot close the door anymore. Cockroaches were crawling all over the place. The owner were charging extra fees not advised prior the check-in, it was 150 for electricity, water, wifi/day(non refundable) and another 300 pesos which was refundable upon check out as deposit for the pass card. I do not know if the bed sheet was clean as we got rashes and itch every morning. No microwave oven, no electric kettle and I had to call them to fix the shower.
Location, that's all.

PhilippinesPretty much everything. This is a complete rip-off. While the host here in booking.com only charged me ₱1300 something, there were hidden charges which I wasn’t previously advised. Even worse, the host didn’t refund me the ₱300 deposit for the key card even after saying he’d do so. I have made several phone calls and text messages to the host and the one who assisted me (w/c I believe is his sister), but neither responded. What a scam and a total rip-off. Had the worst stay ever. The room had LOTS of small cockroaches and they were literally everywhere! I bet they’re not even cleaning the unit properly, and even said they would charge a cleaning fee if it was left untidy. Heck the place was already untidy to begin with. The ad said toiletries would be provided, but no. I had to buy my own shampoo, soap, and toothpaste. I was only provided with a towel and a very think blanket which smelled like it had been stuck in a closet for ages. This wasn’t even prepared in advance as I had to wait more than an hour for this since the time I checked in. The sink in the bathroom was clogged. The sliding door in the shower area seemed to be broken. I got stuck inside but good thing it finally slid after so many attempts of fixing it (mind you, I only used the shower once since it looked unclean.) They made me pay ₱150 for the utility fee (for water, wifi, and electric consumption). I have booked so many hotels and other accommodations but this is the first time I had to pay separately for those which are supposed to be included already in the price I paid. I couldn’t even use the wifi and TV as both weren’t working! Late check-out per hour costed P150. JUST DON’T BOOK THIS PLACE AND ALL THEIR OTHER ACCOMMODATIONS HERE IN BOOKING.COM TO SAVE YOURSELF FROM ALL THESE BLUNDERS. WORST PLACE AND CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER.
Its strategic location to SM Megamall. I booked this place at the last minute for work since there wasn’t any availabilities at BSA Tower anymore.

PhilippinesIt is a waste of money. The smell of the room is really suffocating.The rooms were dirty. the blankets, towels, pillows and sheets smell and look like someone already used it. They have hidden charges, they will ask for additional payment for utilities 150 pesos per head. and they will ask also for late check in and also they will ask 300 pesos for key and card as refundable deposit, which they haven't refund yet even after messaging them with my Gcash details. I do not recommend this place. The floor was dirty. The place was infested with baby cockroaches, It crawled on my face while I was sleeping.. There were dead cockroaches in the kitchen counter, inside the kettle and even inside the fridge that was not working. Wifi is just ok. TV not working but no connection. The sofa bed was broken.

PhilippinesEvrrything. 1. When we arrive, we had to wait long to get a keycard so we can't leave the hotel and go to the mall. When it was finally given to us, it was also not working, so we had yo wait again. The one who assisted us told us that we can't get a key for the door because it's not working and told us to just leave the door unlocked if we will leave since there's cct camera in the hallway anyway. 2. The unit is not cleaned. The floor was dirty. The place was infested with baby cockroaches. There were dead cockroaches in the kitchen counter, inside the kettle and even inside the fridge. We did not attempt to use any of the appliances. Little cockroaches are everywhere!! In the cr, kitchen and even in the bedside where our 2-month old baby is sleeping! 3. Wifi is just ok. TV not working but no connection. The outlet in the bedroom are also opened. 4. Pillows inside the cabinet looks dirty too. It has stains. Same for the bedroom slippers.
